The Playing Fingers
Ten agile fingers play
Up and down the keys;
Ringing out the notes
Of many melodies.
Ascending to the right
And descending to the left;
Playing in the bass
Or in the treble cleft.
Sharps and flats
And natural sounds;
Presenting melodious tones
All around.
The major and the minor chords
Starting at the "C";
Are played by the fingers
In pleasing harmony.
Practice makes perfect
As you can see;
As the notes rise
And fall emotionally.
God gives talents to those
Ten agile friends;
So they can play the melodies
To their very end.
